Sara Imari Walker on Making Sense of Life, the Universe, and Ourselves
On Ep. 136 of Time Sensitive—produced in partnership with with the Aspen Art Museum and recorded in Aspen, Colorado, during the inaugural AIR festival—the physicist and astrobiologist Sara Imari Walker, author of the mind-expanding book “Life as No One Knows It,” discusses time’s essential role in the “assembly theory” physics framework she’s spearheading alongside chemist Lee Cronin, how her childhood growing up in an antiques-filled Connecticut home shaped her fascination with the material world, and why understanding life’s origins on Earth—and exploring alien life beyond our planet—is crucial to understanding ourselves.
